T BUYER’S GUIDE FOR BEER LOVERS 90Dead Guy Ale, Rogue Ales (OR). 6% ABV (5/10) Amber copper color. Rich aromas of flan, citrus marmalade, sautéed zucchini and delicate pine follow through on a satiny, chewy entry to a dryish medium-to-full with great balance and vibrancy. Finishes with a long, earthy and grassy hop crescendo. 89Coney Island Human Blockhead Lager, Shmaltz Brewing Co. (NY). 10% ABV (5/10) Deep copper mahogany color. Dense praline, honeyed raisin toast and candied citrus peel aromas follow through on a rich entry to a dryish medium-full body with great inten-sity and chewy depth. Finishes with a long, crème brûlée, bold kumquat and piney hop flourish. An intensely hoppy West Coast take on the style that is sure to please hop-heads, but may be too much for maibock purists seeking extended “sessionability.” Sprecher Brewing Co. (WI). 6% ABV (5/10) 89Mai Bock, Amber color. Honeyed but-tered raisin toast, cracker and praline aromas follow through on a frothy entry to a dryish medium body with very good depth and a rock solid roasted grain character. Finishes with a cleansing wave of citrusy and earthy hops in fine balance with the malt. Very nice. 88Point Einbock, Stevens Point Brewery (WI). 6.2% ABV (5/10) Bright amber color. Mild cracker and toast aromas follow through on a round, supple entry to a dryish ® THE WORLD BEER CHAMPIONSHIPS Ivory soap aromas follow though on a creamy entry to a dryish medium body with nice hints of creamy caramel. Finishes with pleasant por-ridge and dried citrus fade. Bastone Brewery (MI). 7% ABV (4/08) 86Maibock, medium body with nectarine and dried citrus notes. Finishes with a crisp, grassy hop fade. Nice clean refined maibock. 87Heavy Seas Small Craft Warning Uber Pils, Heavy Seas Beer (MD). 7.5% ABV (5/08) Brilliant golden amber color. Slightly sour dried orange, nut toast and Amber in color with a slight orange cast. Honey, cookie dough and graham cracker nose with hints of orange marmalade. Soft on the palate with gentle carbonation. Dark toast and sweet honey butter notes make up the malt backbone. Finishing with a candy apple-like sweetness with slight perks of bitterness that are actually fairly quenching. Try this brew with some slow-roasted pork with apples and shallots. Raleigh you did it again, you made this the best festival ever! Thanks to all the breweries, sponsors, volunteers and beer enthusiasts who made this event so much fun. 21st Amendment Brewery Abita Brewing Co. Allagash Brewing Co. Anchor Brewing Co.
